AC Schnitzer introduced its tuning package for the BMW 5 Series Touring. The package includes performance and styling enhancements for all the 5 series engine offerings whether it's the entry level 520d or the top of the range 550i. The latter can be tuned to produce as much as 525 Hp!
Aesthetically, the aerodynamic kit includes a front splitter, new side skirts, a rear spoiler, a vented hood and a redesigned rear bumper. Also part of the package are the sports exhaust system, the 25 millimeters lowering kit and let's not forget AC Schnitzer's beautiful and easily recognizable wheels that can be had in 18 to 21 inches.

Pres release:
The new 5 series LCI by AC Schnitzer celebrates its world premiere on the Essen Motor Show 2013
Once again, AC Schnitzer has developed a complete product range for this model which includes
performance upgrades, exhaust systems, wheel and tyre combinations, aerodynamic bodystyling
components and accessories for the interior.
More power is available for vehicles with diesel or petrol engines, in both rear-wheel and xDrive
variants. The range of performance upgrades is vast, giving extra power of between 34 and 93 hp
depending on basic engine.
Sports rear silencers made of stainless steel with chromed tailpipes provide the sonorous note.
And AC Schnitzer of course provides suitable combinations of wheels and tyres for the new 5-
series LCI series: alloy wheels in BiColor or silver, or forged racing rims in BiColor - what a choice
for the customer. Or you might prefer the totally new Type V forged alloys in 20", which are a real
flyweight at just 11 kg.
A complete aerodynamic bodykit is also part of the AC Schnitzer special accessory range.
Aluminium accessories such as pedal sets and gear knobs - together with velours foot mats -
complete the range.
